CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. - A worker from Canaveral Construction in Mims, Fla., re-grades a section of the lime rock on the crawlerway near Launch Pad 39B at NASAs Kennedy Space Center in Florida.The crawlerway is being upgraded to improve the foundation and prepare it to support the weight of NASAs Space Launch System, or SLS, and mobile launcher on the crawler-transporter during rollout. Workers are removing the original Alabama river rock and restoring the layer of lime rock below to its original depth. Then new river rock will be added on top. The Ground Systems Development and Operations, or GSDO, Program office at Kennedy is leading the centers transformation to safely handle a variety of rockets and spacecraft.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. - The form for the concrete landing pad for the Project Morpheus lander is set near the Shuttle Landing Facility at NASAs Kennedy Space Center in Florida.Testing of the prototype lander has been ongoing at NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston in preparation for its first free flight. The SLF will provide the lander with the kind of field necessary for realistic testing, complete with rocks, craters and hazards to avoid. Morpheus utilizes an autonomous landing and hazard avoidance technology, or ALHAT, payload that will allow it to navigate to clear landing sites amidst rocks, craters and other hazards during its descent. Project Morpheus is one of 20 small projects comprising the Advanced Exploration Systems, or AES, program in NASA's Human Exploration and Operations Mission Directorate. AES projects pioneer new approaches for rapidly developing prototype systems, demonstrating key capabilities and validating operational concepts for future human missions beyo

Team members from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers - Alaska District conduct an inspection of USACE projects in Nome as an excavator clears storm debris on the causeway bridge at the port on Sept. 21, 2022. The district deployed a team of engineers with expertise in structural, geotechnical, and hydraulics and hydrology in response to the Bering Sea storm over the weekend. The team will review notes and images they took of the project to complete a detailed assessment of the structure and determine if any repairs are needed. As a regional hub, Nome harbor supplies 50 surrounding communities in western and northern Alaska with consumer goods and fuel. (U.S. Army photo)
